BeepMen's therapy in a nutshell
sad_detective_man“But have you considered that your just imagining it and arev oversensitive?”
Oh man. My ex physically attacked me in broad daylight, full on slapping and pushing, then kept texting me how she didn’t really do it and I had imagined it and if she did it wasn’t that bad. I broke up with her, obviously.
Then months later when I had a new girlfriend she kept calling me and leaving me voicemails how I was a cheating bastard and a terrible awful person for lying to her and betraying her trust and love…
And anyone who hears that story basically tells me I am exaggerating and there is no way a woman would ever hit a man, but if she did, I must have done something awful to deserve it.
but if she did, I must have done something awful to deserve it.
I had that happen once with a former friend, and she shut her mouth awfully quick when I responded “yeah, or maybe it was what I was wearing”. Granted, she’s a rape survivor, but it baffles me how she basically used the same dismissal she dealt with against me. At least it helped her realize how stupid she was being, but still, damn.
Yeah, that’s a good one. I’m usually not snappy enough to have a comeback when it happens.
But it is a good flag that I don’t want to interact with that person anymore, and they probably don’t want to interact with me anyway. I def have had a few relationships that ended over that type of response… and usually when you break up with them they get violent…
